I'm just wondering if there are apps that might prefer one instruction over the other, and therefore, both might be needed?

No issue at all; you can employ those properties because if an ereader doesn't support one of them, it will ignore it. But in my tests, I discovered that those ereaders that support -webkit-column-break-after|before|inside", they also support "break-after|before|inside".
Today, virtually all epub3 readers mimic pagination using multi-columns, making the use of the "break-after|before: avoid-column" or "break-after|before: column" property (to force a break) almost indispensable. Of course, you also have the Webbit alternative.
